Trevor Molloy (born 14 April 1977 in Dublin) is an Irish football player.
Molloy started his league career with Shamrock Rovers at 18 making his League of Ireland debut at St Mel's Park on 7 January 1996 but after only a handful of appearances he moved to First Division club Athlone Town in 1996. He immediately hit his stride and ended up the division's second top scorer in 1996–97 season earning him a move to St Patrick's Athletic and a shock call up by Brian Kerr to the Republic of Ireland national football team for the 1997 FIFA World Youth Championships. Molloy played every game and was Ireland's joint top scorer (2) as they reached the semi final stage only to lose to eventual winners Argentina. Ireland won bronze medals after beating Ghana in the 3rd/4th place play-off game.
At St. Pats he linked up with Ireland team mates Colin Hawkins and Thomas Morgan, who had been added to the nucleus of the squad that had won the 1995–96 League of Ireland Premier Division, and a lot was expected of the obviously talented squad. All three players made an immediate impact with Molloy enjoying a terrific partnership with Ian Gilzean as St. Pats won the league with a dramatic last day win in Kilkenny while arch-rivals Shelbourne lost to Dundalk. During this season Molloy won the first of his Under 21 caps. In 1998–99 Molloy finished as the League of Ireland Premier Division top scorer as St. Pats raced to another league title.
